How to Become an Approved Clinical Supervisor for LPCs in Louisiana
If you're a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana and ready to expand your impact by supervising future clinicians, you’ll need to become a Board-Approved LPC Supervisor (LPC-S). The Louisiana LPC Board has outlined specific clinical supervision training and continuing education (CE) requirements for both initial approval and ongoing renewal of the LPC-S designation. This article will walk you through those requirements and explain how the Telehealth Certification Institute can support you, especially with renewal CE options.
📝Louisiana LPC Supervisor (LPC-S) Requirements
📌 Initial LPC-S Approval Requirements
According to LAC 46:LX. Chapter 7, §705(A)(1), to become an LPC-S, you must:
Hold an active LPC license in good standing.
Complete a board-approved professional training program in supervision.
The program must include a minimum of 25 direct clock hours of face-to-face interaction with the instructor.
Note: The Telehealth Certification Institute does not currently offer a course that meets the 25 face-to-face hour requirement for initial LPC-S approval in Louisiana.
🔁 LPC-S Renewal Requirements
To maintain your LPC-S designation, the Board requires:
3 clock hours in clinical supervision CE every 2 years, as part of your 40 total CE hours for license renewal.
These 3 hours must be specific to supervision practice and must be approved by the Board.
